Thanks, Bob Some transparent material like gel pad might make it more beautiful and I also will try.

Yes, just rubber.

How about putting a shock absorber in the lip slot like this? I used small two plates of gum. A little bit ugly but seems to be durable.

Deep diving balsa flatside crankbait. -
BobP is right and you should set the lip deeper to where almost near the eyes. Deeper lip slot will make the lip stronger with super glue like Devcon 2 ton. You can do this if you make a V letter cut on the upper part of the lip to avoid the front eye heaton. I also use the lightest (softest) balsawood, Devcon 2ton, and twisted wire eyes and my lure never broken when I fished the big Barramundi.

Flatside balsa crankbait. Present for a happy family. -
I do it like this with a hand saw, a vise and 4 pieces of hard wood.

Long time no see guys. I'm alive and sorry to be anxious about me, Pete Recently I rather like to go trekking than fishing I am one of the members from TackleMaking .com. Many years ago, Erik, the owner of the site asked me to get a tutorial of lure making from my personal site, and this is how I participate in TM. I've had a pleasant time and learned a lot of things from other members. Hiro

Nice one BobP, the triple impact is known as a big fish killer in Japan and your lure will catch the big ones. Did you know the lure had been a handmade lure by Mr.Nishine before Shimano started to make? He works in Canada and kwown as a builder of Beatour crankbait and Tru-life swimbait. http://nishinelureworks.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
